Tripod for Panasonic FZ5 and nikon D50

[hirowen]

I would like to buy a tripod for my FZ5. The problem is, can i use that for D50, which i am going to buy in the near future? Any tripod to recommend? Cheap and good. Thanks

The Slik Sprint Pro?

try 330dx... sprint pro doesn't work so well if you are going to use d50 with a rather heavy lens. i got this 2 cam tho i haven tried putting on a heavy lens but i don think it will support well.

Whatever the brand, whatever the model, buy a good one. It will last you a long time.

Any tripod can mount any camera is it?

 

[Pynch]

Yes (other than some very heavy large format camera).

Can i get a good one with my budget is around $300?

Shld be more than enuff to cater to your needs.

Try the Manfrotto 190ProB with a 486RC2. Total setup shld be less than $300.

Cheers

That setup I mentioned is slightly over your budget by alittle.

Manfrotto 190ProB + 486RC2 Ballhead should be able to fit ard your budget.
